Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2014/Coordination

The Arbitration Committee elections are run by the English Wikipedia community. This page lists all of the volunteer staff and their duties. If you have a question or a concern about the election, please [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2014/Coordination&action=edit&section=new notify us] on the talk page.

Election volunteer guideline
While coordinators have as much right to participate in ordinary voter activity during the election as all other eligible voters (i.e. voting, asking questions, discussing candidates), election volunteers should avoid acting in a way that might cast doubt on their ability to act impartially, or on the perceived neutrality of the coordinators or elections as a whole.

Electoral Commission
The Electoral Commission is a three-member panel with a mandate to solve disputes and make decisions on unexpected problems. This year the Electoral Comission is appointed by the community after input via a request for comment.
